Dear Kelly-Anne,
Would it be appropriate to wish you a happy 33rd Birthday today? I know you are smiling down from Heaven and at peace.I know you are happy for your friends and family that remember you on a daily basis. I know you are working hard from above to help us. You have helped all your friends and family and those you never met like Mario.
You were here yesterday in our house. I thought of you and realized that what had just happened was something you put in place. It was a good thing that happened and I thank you for that. It was your way of telling me that you cared and wanted to find a way to help me find a solution to my problem.
Today I was speaking to a group of students studying to be Early Childhood Educators. You helped me wing it as I felt your presence with me in that classroom. I spoke about you and your sister and about the work you both did with children. I also spoke about my business and about taking care of oneself during pregnancy. My goodness, my life has changed...who would of thought.......I would be where I am today. And you were there always, these past 8 years, through thick and thin, always by my side.
I thank you for the baby that will be apart of our family. I know you are beaming with pride. Saturday evening, I will see your friends from life guarding. Hugs and kisses will flow and I will try to put on my brave face. I promise. Their news, their little additions to their families for which I am very happy for them, still leaves me with a wound straight through my heart. They have all the things that you should of had an opportunity to have.
Remember Kell, you are never forgotten. This week has been an emotionally charged one leading up to today. You have to realize that I did shed some tears this morning, but you helped me be strong throughout the day. Thank you for that.
The Christmas tree is up. The balls which you so perfectly made are hanging on the tree and Jules and I reminisced about Christmases past with you.
I await your next message or a dream with you in it.
Sending all my love to you,
Mom xxxxx
